Description: The Chromatic Octave Exercise is essential for all guitarists, regardless of style. It gives absolutely vital development to the left hand in a way no other exercise does. Chromatic Octaves greatly strengthen the left hand and especially develop the ability of the fingers to spread apart. Anatomically, this means they develop the muscles that lie in between the bones inside the palm of the hand, the “interosseous muscles”. These muscles are often undeveloped in players, and that is why the practice of chromatic octaves is so important for all guitarists.

This course will develop the musculature of the left hand to build strength and finger stretch. With the left hand development you will get from the correct practice of this exercise, everything you play will feel easier and sound better!

This exercise is best used after studying “How To Master A Scale”, but it can be used with great benefit at any time.

What you will get from this course:

● A video with complete, detailed note by note instructions for the exercise. You will be told exactly what your fingers should be doing at every moment. What the fingers you are not using are doing is as important as the actions of the fingers you are using!

● A video of Jamie doing the exercise slow, medium and fast.

● A PDF of the exercise, the instructions, and a discussion of the correct course of left hand development that gives you powerful left hand technique.
